[QUOTE="scratch, post: 3047619, member: 1674"] There is some bad advice being given here. My Center hired 19 new permanent drivers for Tuesday through Saturday when we went to Saturday Ground a few months back. A few of them washed out in no time. We picked up a few extra routes from nearby small Centers with an expansion to our Hub. We are also getting an automated Small Sort installed. UPS is expecting more volume from online sales. Those large pieces of furniture we are getting is because they are too big for the Post Office and Amazon contractors. People are getting too lazy to pick up at a store that offers free shipping, the big stuff is a trend that is not going away. We had to go hiring full-time drivers off the street because either the part-time Hub people don't want to bid on full-time package or aren't qualified. HelloBrown1978 may be getting hired under similar circumstances. Being on the bottom may mean laid off a day here and there, but I think he isn't being hired just for Peak Season. [/QUOTE]
